Purnose of Item:
EXTENDING THE MIAMI UNLEADED PROGRAM'S GEOGRAPHICAL BOUNDARIES TO ENCOMPASS
MIAMI DADE COUNTY; AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE NECESSARY
DOCUMENTS WITH US HUD, FOR SAID PURPOSE.
Background Information:
Pursuant to Resolution 04-0756, adopted on November 18, 2004, accepting a grant from the United States Department of
Housing and Urban Development in the amount of $3,000,000, for the Miami Unleaded Program for fiscal year 2004-2005,
to provide a comprehensive approach to lead hazard control in the City of Miami.
The Miami Unleaded Program ("Program") has had difficulty in attracting sufficient numbers of qualified residents to satisfy
US HUD grant conditions.
Many interested, qualified residents were unwilling or unable to accept interest-free second mortgages up to $15,000 to
abate Lead hazards in their homes.
The Program has not been able to attract sufficient numbers of qualified multi -unit residential building owners to participate
in the program.
The Program will issue grants, to a maximum of $15,000 per qualified homeowner, for the purpose of lead hazard
abatement, retroactively applicable to the current Program participants.
The administration recommends extending the Miami Unleaded Program's geographical boundaries to encompass Miami
Dade County.
